[Intro]
              E7      
Hey do it now yeah hey
       Esus4        E7    
Once I was a boogie singer
Esus4 E7                             
■     Playin' in a rock and roll band


[Verse]
  E7                        
I never had no problems yeah
E7                               
Burnin' down the one night stands
Em7                       E7     
Then everything around me ■  yeah
E7                           
Got to stop to feelin' so low
      E7                       
And I decided quickly yes I did
   E7                               
To disco down and check out the show
          E7  
Yeah they were
                    E7                        
Dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
    E7                                                    
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
E7                             
Play that funky music white boy
          E7               
Play that funky music right


[Chorus]
G7                             
Play that funky music white boy
                         G7                                
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music 'til you die
G7                       
'til you die oh yeah yeah
G7                             
Well I tried to understand this
                    G7                     
I thought that they were out of their minds
            G7           
How could I be so foolish
   Bb7                         
To not see I was the one behind
   Bb    C G               
So still I kept on fighting
G                                
Well losing every step of the way
       Bm7                 
I said I must go back there
    Bm7                                  
And check to see if things still the same
E    E7                       E           E7 E

                        E7                                
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
E7                             
Play that funky music white boy
E7

Now first it wasn't easy
E7                              
Changin' rock and roll and minds
     E7                       
Yeah things were getting shaky
  E7                                 
I thought I'd have to leave it behind
       E7                    
Oh but now its so much better
    E7                      
I'm funking out in every way
         E7                     
But I'll never lose that feelin'
   E7                              
Of how I learned my lesson that day
               E7                                            
When they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
                                        G7                
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
